ABSTRACT
Aberrant right subclavian artery is the most common anomaly of the aortic arch. Patients are often asymptomatic and discovered accidentally. Occasionally, they present with symptoms related to oesophageal or tracheal compression.A 13-year-old girl presented with dysphagia and stridor was found to have an aberrant right subclavian artery. Surgical division and reconstruction of the artery was performed initially through right supraclavicular approach. An additional left thoracotomy was performed to overcome the challenges encountered at initial operation.
